Guest guest Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 Hi my name is Bessie and my son Gavin (age 5) is low functioning asd and woke up this morning with a loose tooth and he won't let me look in his mouth and i'm afraid that he might swallow it and if he didn't grind his teeth so much i wouldn't be worried but i know they are sharp and i'm afraid that it might cut or puncher something if swallowed if anyone has dealt with this or has any advise i would appreciate it greatly.

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 Dear Bessie, My daughter was also a tooth grinder back then, and swallowed at least one tooth I remember, eating a pear. Usually ground teeth are smooth as pearls. Francine In a message dated 2/28/2008 12:44:09 A.M.

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 Bessie,Will he mimic you? If so, get him in front of a mirror with you and open your mouth and reach in and fiddle with your equivalent of his loose tooth. You might be able to get him to pull it out if you can get him to understand that it is appropriate to pull it when it is that loose or maybe if you ask him to give you that tooth... -LanaOn 2/24/08, lady_jaden_25 <lady_jaden_25@...> wrote: Hi my name is Bessie and my son Gavin (age 5) is low functioning asd and woke up this morning with a loose tooth and he won't let me look in his mouth and i'm afraid that he might swallow it and if he didn't grind his teeth so much i wouldn't be worried but i know they are sharp and i'm afraid that it might cut or puncher something if swallowed if anyone has dealt with this or has any advise i would appreciate it greatly.
